The ISOC will determine whether the abstract should be accepted for presentation. Consideration will be based on scientific merit, relevance to the theme of the session selected and to the general theme of the meeting "Antarctica-Witness to the Past and Guide to the Future". The presenting author should ensure that all co-authors are aware of the content of the abstract before submission. Only the abstracts of registered presenting authors will be included in the program and in the Conference book of abstracts. Abstracts should be submitted in English and targeted at the named sessions (see Open Science Conference Sessions). Last day for electronic submission of abstracts: April 1, Submissions should indicate whether they are for oral or poster presentation. Abstracts must contain no more than 250 words (350 words for SCAR Keynote Lectures). Abstract text should be written contiguously, without paragraphs. No pictures and graphs are allowed. Abstracts must reflect the essence of your presentation. A clear and simple style will be appreciated. Please note, abstracts containing such phrases as "Results will be discussed" instead of a description of the results will be rejected. Abbreviations are permitted but must be defined when mentioned for the first time. The abstract body must contain only text, i.e. must not duplicate information about title, authors, etc.
